    Tornado Shelters - Safe Rooms

    • Tornado shelters are available at all FSPS schools.
    • Tornado shelters on FSPS campuses are an option for anyone seeking shelter during a tornado warning. During school hours, students and staff are provided priority access to the shelter. If room is available after students and staff are safely secure, the public will be invited inside.
    • When a tornado warning siren sounds, the tornado shelters automatically unlock for residents to seek shelter.
    • FSPS Storm Shelter Managers will be present.
    • FSPS encourages residents to observe CDC guidelines for physical distancing when inside.
    • Residents may wear their PPE into the storm shelters if they feel the need to do so.
